Wish You Were Here

In my mind, the lines begin to form Sketching itself for a representation Every one detail, drawn to belong Slow yet inviting in its final presentation As I begin to see a face As clearly as I remember, I’m to recognize That someone I long to embrace Someone in this very portraiture, no one can ever buy We are so far yet I’m to feel you near As always as certain, you are the picture I see I can only wish you were here What remains, can I only embrace you in a memory And I held you for a moment longer Always longer than time would simply allow Your scent might perhaps just become stronger Given my vivid imagination and not just anyhow Every one detail in full completion Your every one line to signify your form Inviting as always your every presentation In my mind if not always, you belong
